Announcing the CUP Teaching Artist Fellowship!

CUP is launching the CUP Teaching Artist Fellowship, a new initiative to engage talented visual artists, designers, and educators in CUP’s award-winning methodologies.

The CUP Teaching Artist Fellowship allows New York City-based Teaching Artists to apply their art and design skills to contribute to social change. Eight to 10 Fellows will be selected to participate in the year-long fellowship, in which they will learn CUP’s Youth Education methodologies and engage with a Teaching Artist community invested in social justice. Four to five Fellows will also have the opportunity to collaborate with CUP, a classroom teacher, and public high school students on a City Studies project to help connect a teachers’ core curricula to a new kind of civics education — one that uses design and art as tools to research the city.
